DECO BLACK knife detailed description:

Line 991A Deco Black knives are made of stainless steel X50CrMoV15 – carbon steel with added chromium (increases corrosion resistance), molybdenum (reduces steel brittleness), and vanadium (enhances wear resistance).

The blade hardness of the Deco Black knife on the Rockwell scale is 53-55 HRC. The Rockwell scale indicates the ability to maintain sharpness over a period of time and tests the resistance to mechanical damage and blade overload. Hard knives keep their sharpness for a long time, but they are harder to sharpen, less flexible, and more prone to cracking and chipping. Each knife should be rigid to precisely cut different ingredients, yet on the other hand, it must be flexible enough not to break when changing the cutting angle or applying high pressure. In most cases, the hardness for kitchen knives is specified from 52 HRC, while 57-58 HRC already indicates hard steel. The blade hardness of Gerlach kitchen knives has been adjusted to provide extremely precise and sharp cutting, while minimizing the risk of the blade breaking during intensive use.

A knife for you

The knife is equipped with an anti-slip handle made of a more durable material than wood, ABS.

To ensure that Gerlach kitchen knives bring us enjoyment with their reliability and beautiful appearance for as long as possible, we recommend washing them by hand.
